Adding a 146 gig SCSI Hard Drive to Power Edge

How can i add a SCSI Hard Drive (146 Gigs) to my system, i already inserted the drive with its carrier, and the green light comes on on it. But, when i go to windows explorer i dont see a letter for my drive, what do i have to do???
is there a special configuration for the jumpers? how can i format it if i dont see it from my o.s.?
can someone please help me?????
 
 
it currently has:
 
5 scsi drives:
 
2 Drives - in Raid (1 Gig each) for O.S. running NT 4.0  (C Drive, total 2 gigs)
3 Drives - in Raid (9 Gigs each) for Sharing Data on network (F Drive, total 27 gigs)

If you have Array Manager installed then you can try adding another virtual disk to the PERC
controller.
If not then do a Ctrl-A or Ctrl-M depending on your PERC and create another vitual disk
from the bios.
Once this is completed go to the Disk Management and look for the new volume.
You will then right click on the volume,write a signature to the it then format.
